Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Facilities - Harveysburg, OH.

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also battle with a substance abuse problem, their prior chronic medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and adequately addressed at the same time they receive rehab for their alcohol or drug addiction. Keeping this client in recovery is not only crucial for their safety, but for the good of the public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others should their drug problem continue.

Often, clients who fight with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time may have let their bodies deteriorate due to the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Many stop taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore need serious medical intervention once they do reach drug rehabilitation. Aside from rehab for their alcohol or drug addiction, in a rehabilitation center that provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a medical assessment to determine if they have any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.

Addiction treatment for people with HIV/AIDS in Harveysburg would include detoxification services that are safely handled with both the patient and the treatment staff in mind. Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling persons with HIV or AIDS become inspired to be sober and healthier, and attending self-help groups where other people have the same sober goal is strongly encouraged.
